Building your own home...

(photo from threadless.com)

When I've started this blog, it was with a clear intention of sharing only my artwork and other crafty creations - personal matters would stay out.

However, there's a looming change for our family in the horizon, and if I wait untill I have hand-made something to share, well, my readers would wait a long time and thus abandon me.

So the big news is that just a few days ago we have signed to build our new dream home. Initially I was on the fence about the proposition of moving, but a promise of a larger art room with a (gasp!) walk-in closet for my art supplies was just an offer I could not refuse.

Now I am panicking and freaking out: Our kids just started school and have their own schedules and needs; we still have our current house to fix-up, stage, and put on the market, as well as the overseeing of the new construction.

My plan is to share the week-by-week process of the construction of our dream home. It'll also serve me as a journal when I condense this material into a mini album.

Have any of my readers gone through building their own home? I hope you'll leave a comment and share some advice.

Hope to hear from you!
